Consequences


Every decision I make will have its consequences. Every action I take will result in certain specific consequences.
And that provides me with an enormous, ongoing opportunity. Because it enables me to spend every single moment creating exactly the consequences I desire.
Life is filled with an abundance of very clear causes and effects. By carefully choosing the causes I bring to life, I can determine which of the effects I'll obtain.
First I'll consider the consequences before I act, and choose those actions that will deliver the consequences I wish to have. So if I follow that simple formula with commitment and persistence, and anything I dare to dream will come true.
The things I do right now will set in motion profound consequences that stretch far into the future. For anything you can imagine, there is a way to move toward it in this very moment.
What consequences would you like to see for yourself and your world? Now is when you can make them happen.

Just a note to one's self


If I Imagine, just for a moment, that I am living life exactly the way I want it to be. I've broken free of my most troublesome limitations and Im fulfilling my most treasured dreams.
I greet each day with confidence and an unshakable faith. I take the setbacks in stride because I know I'll find a way to work steadily through them.
When Im faced with a decision, I choose not what will make me look good or what is easiest, but rather what is right and what is best. When working with others I act with respect, honesty and integrity, because I know for a fact that anything less only pulls down everyone concerned.
Imagine that life is the best it can possibly be, and see the reality of such a life. What thoughts would you think, how would you act, what things would you say, how would you feel?
Now stop imagining, and know for certain that all of those thoughts, actions, words and feelings are available to you this very moment. You've just imagined them in full detail so go ahead, take the next step and make them real.
Starting now,I'll act the way I'd act if life was the best it could possibly be, I'll think the way I'd think, feel the way I'd feel. Give life to your dreams and you have already begun to make them real.(Ok now for one more for a person that is in need of this, And does not know it yet.You will find your way.) You entertain lies and deceit, you are held prisoner in a world cut off from reality. The truth you hide from yourself, prevents you from growth and fulfillment. The truth you hide from others, keeps you distantly apart.
The truth shines a bright light on life, so you can clearly see the way to go. Success, achievement, happiness, joy, fellowship, and fulfillment, thrive in the warm and nurturing light of the truth.
Honesty is the most direct path to wherever you want to go. Truth and honesty are often difficult, yet never more difficult, in the end, than deceit. To think otherwise, is to deceive even yourself. Hiding in the shadows of falsehood, makes it impossible to move forward.
That the truth is moral and ethical, is no secret. Yet truth is also practical, efficient, and effective in every worthy pursuit, something well known by those who enjoy lasting success.
Live in the bright, empowering light. Embrace the truth. It always serves you best.

To Make a commitment


Commitment is trust. We must trust and be trusted, or there is no true commitment.
Commitment is action. It goes far beyond words or good intentions. We must act to fulfill our commitments. Commitment is more than a promise. It is a promise fulfilled. Commitment is attention. We must continually attend to our commitments, or they soon lose their value.
Commitment is persistent. It does not wither at the first sign of trouble. In fact, it grows stronger with every challenge, (This I know) Commitment is faith, and commitment is faithful. Commitment is truth. Commitment is caring. Commitment is responsible. Commitment is intentional. Commitment is capable.
Commitment is power. When I am committed, things get done. Relationships blossom. Great achievements happen. Commitment turns intentions into reality.
Commitment is worth it. At times it is painful. It demands effort and sacrifice. It is inconvenient and uncomfortable. Yet I know it will bring out the best in me, and will take me to places where otherwise I would never go. I Considered carefully before committing myself. Then once I've made the commitment,I'll give it everything I have. There is incredible joy to be found in my well placed and tended commitments.
